Renee turned around and their eyes met. In his eyes, she once again saw the coldness of old.

The air seemed to freeze at that moment. Even though they were on a warm island, it felt as cold as the South

Pole.

Neither of them spoke, but one could feel the exchange of sharp blades between their eyes.

“Oh no!”

Leia covered her face. She knew this would happen!

The atmosphere was as eerie as a horror film. Leia, who was stuck between them, felt extremely awkward. She felt

like jumping into the sea to get away.

“Umm… Mr. Hunt, please don’t misunderstand. The two of us talk nonsense to each other all the time. Sometimes,

we don’t really mean what we say. Besides, besides…”

Leia was crumbling under the intense pressure. She racked her brains trying to make excuses for Renee.

Although she strongly disapproved of their reunion, she did not hope to see them get into a fight over something so

ridiculous.

“I meant everything I said.”

Renee stared at Stefan expressionlessly. His coldness did not make her nervous at all. She said calmly, “Everybody

wants eternal love, but fundamentally, love is just the result of a sudden surge in hormones. After a while, you’ll get

tired and you’ll get bored. Instead of making hypocritical promises, why not just accept the laws of human nature

honestly?”

“How rational of you. If I hadn’t known better, I would have thought that I’m dating a robot.”

Stefan gave her a cold smile. It cut her like a sharp knife.

He was a calm, rational, and emotionally stable person himself. In fact, he was known to the public as an

emotionless person.

But now, he had become the one who had lost control of his emotions.

He lost control because of what Renee said and did. In fact, she did not even have to do anything; merely her

rational attitude was enough to make him lose control!

Renee continued expressionlessly, “Don’t flatter me. I can’t compare to a robot. A robot can guarantee to treat you

the same way forever. I can’t guarantee that.”

“So what you’re saying is, you’re mentally prepared to leave me already?”

Stefan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

“I wouldn’t say that, but… I wouldn’t get hung up on the idea of eternal love either. Let nature take its course. We’ll

stay together if we feel like it, and we’ll break up if we feel like it. You feel the same way, don’t you?”

“No, I don’t!”

Stefan’s eyes were as deep as black holes that would suck everything in. He gave her a firm stare. “From the

moment I decided to start over with you, I never thought of breaking up.”

Even Leia was a bit moved by his words, let alone Renee.

As a former stan of the “Hunt My Everheart” ship, her desire to stan the couple once again burned fiercely, but she

tried to suppress the impulse with reason.

‘Wake up, Leia Osborne! A collapsed ship is not worth stanning!’

Leia looked at Renee. She thought Renee must be really touched too, like she was. She was half expecting pink

bubbles to pop up around Renee.

After all, no woman in the world could resist sweet words from the man she loved, right?!

But surprisingly, Renee seemed puzzled instead. She kindly reminded Stefan, “Your nose will grow out if you lie.”

Stefan: “……”

Leia: “……”

Renee was worried that Stefan’s ego might be bruised, so she softened her attitude and, like a mother coaxing a

rebellious son, said, “The moon always wanes after it becomes full. Sometimes, it’s a bad omen to make empty

promises too early. I’m just worried that we might be disappointed. That’s why I’m planning for the future.”
